I come from several KTM:s, R1, S1000RR etc and all those bikes have better feel and power on the brakes.
For slow gentle rides the brakes are ok but when you really need them things are getting dangerous.
We all have different preferences.
Got a 2018 ES a couple weeks ago with only 6000km on it, but I think the brake performance is so poor on these bikes so I will put braided lines on it for better feel and performance.
